- Availability of a complete medication history since initiation of treatment, including doses and date of initiation
- No competing cause of epilepsy (e.g. traumatic brain injury)
- AED treatment (for seizures) instituted not more than 12 months before enrollment
Exclusion Criteria
- Focal epilepsy

Treatment resistant IGE
- Initiation of treatment at least 2 years prior to enrollment
- Treatment resistance, as defined by failure of adequate trials of two tolerated and appropriately chosen and used AED schedules (whether as monotherapies or in combination to achieve seizure freedom). ASMs taken at enrollment would count towards this minimum.
- Either or both of the following two:
i. One GTCC per year over the last 2 years. ii. Any type of seizure at least every 3 months which can consist of either: disabling myoclonus or absence (in the opinion of the subject and investigator) or GTCC d. Such seizures were not primarily due to significant illness (e.g, URI is not significant unless temperature >101oF (38.3oC), nonadherence to antiseizure medications or >2 alcoholic beverages within 48 hrs of seizure e. Ongoing therapy with > 1 antiseizure medication
Exclusion Criteria:

- Paroxysmal nonepileptic seizures
- Generalized/focal epilepsy mixed syndromes
- Progressive neurological disorder (brain tumor, Alzheimer's disease, progressive myoclonic epilepsy, etc.)
- Epileptic or developmental encephalopathy
- Major medical co-morbidities (e.g. renal failure requiring dialysis, metastatic cancer, HIV, or significant liver or renal disease)
- Autism Spectrum Disorder
- History of chronic drug or alcohol abuse (misuse or excessive use that interferes with activities of daily living) within the last 2 years
- Seizures only during pregnancy
- History of previous or current significant psychiatric disorder that would interfere with study requirements
- History of/suspicion of provoked seizures accounting for 25% or more of seizures over the prior 2 years (eg alcohol, non-adherence, significant sleep deprivation).

Change in Quality of Life in Epilepsy Inventory-10 (QOLIE-10) Score
Time Frame: Baseline, Month 12
|
QOLIE-10 assesses the patient's quality of life.
There are 11 total items.
The total score range is 10-51; with higher scores indicating greater impairment.
The total score is the sum of scores for all questions divided by the number of items answered.
Thus, if a patient skipped an item, it is not reflected in the total score.

Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) Score
Time Frame: Baseline
|
C-SSRS systematically tracks suicidal ideation and behavior.
The total score range is 0 (no ideation is present) - 5 (active suicidal ideation with specific plan and intent).
The higher the score, the greater one's suicidal ideation.
Any score greater than 0 is important and may indicate the need for mental health intervention

Cogstate Neuropsychological Assessment Score
Time Frame: Baseline
|
The Cogstate is a battery of online computerized tests that assesses functions such as attention, memory, and processing speed.
Scores are normalized to the range of 0-100th percentile based on speed of test completion and task accuracy.
A higher percentile score indicates higher levels of cognitive functioning within the tested domain as compared to controls.
